    I think Pittsburgh, Seattle, New York and San Diego will win. But betting wise.....

    I have to go with the Steelers at the price. I always thought they were much better at home and have that advantage here. Im amazed they are not faves against the Jags. 11/8 with Ladbrokes (who took some money of me earlier).

    That is my main bet but i'll also have a small nibble at the Giants. They are packed with talent and gave a good show against the Pats. Plax might have a field day! 4/3 is out there but Lads and Boyles both go 5/4

    Staying clear of NY game as anything can happen there, treble of Seattle Seahawks, San Diego Chargers, Jacksonville Jaguars in the others, though washington could make this a throughly miserable weekend for me. Think the jags are safe enough tho

    didn't stay up for the 2nd half but sounds like a good game. Still unsure about new york, really think that game could go either way.

    Pittsburgh played brilliant in the 2nd but couldn't stop that run (from Garrard of all people) on that 4th down which led to the winning FG. If only! Bookies had the handicap near spot on anyway.

    Nah i went striaght. I'm not really a fan of backing handicaps of under 4 points. Although i might review that stance!
